My name is Maria Yemets, I'm a photographer based in Barcelona, originally from Ukraine. I've been shooting professionally since 2016. I specialize in wedding photography, engagement sessions, maternity and newborn shoots, family photography, baptisms, and personal branding. Over the years I've developed my own approach, before a session I always go over the location, timing (based on light) and outfits with the client, so nothing feels improvised on the day. During the session itself, I don't pose people, I follow what happens naturally between them. My clients are mostly couples, families, and expats who want photos that look like their real life, not a staged picture. I care about connection and details rather than perfect poses or artificial scenes, which is why the photos come out cinematic, emotional, and honest.

7 Reviews for Maria Yemets
From the moment we met her, she made us feel comfortable, relaxed, and confident in front of the camera. My fiancé, Guillermo, and I are not professional models and quickly ran out of ideas for poses, but Mariia was incredible at guiding us every step of the way. She went above and beyond to suggest natural poses, creative ideas, and candid moments that truly captured our personalities and relationship.
The photos turned out absolutely beautiful, better than we could have imagined. She has an amazing eye for detail, lighting, and composition, and she perfectly captured the magic of Barcelona as the backdrop to our special memories.
Not only is she exceptionally talented, but she is also kind, patient, professional, and genuinely passionate about her work. If you are looking for a photographer who will make you feel at ease and deliver stunning photographs, I cannot recommend Mariia highly enough.
Thank you, Mariia, for giving us memories we will cherish forever!
Even with the language difference, you made us feel super comfortable!
The photographs convey warmth, calm, and peace. They will be wonderful memories. We will definitely repeat!
Thank you so much from Albert and I! You are amazing.
